2.11 Frame Ground Connection
IMPORTANT
Connect the frame of the main unit to ground. The grounding plug of the AC cable provides some
protection from external noise and lightning strikes, but it may not be enough to fully protect the
unit. A permanent connection between ground and the ground terminal of the unit must be made.
1. Loosen the screw.
2. Insert a grounding wire (user-supplied).
Note
• Green-and-yellow insulation is required, and the cross-sectional area of the conductor must be
more than 0.75 mm
2
or 18 AWG.
3. Tighten the screw.
4. Connect the grounding wire to ground.
